Housekeeping

• Keep your workplace clutter-free to prevent tripping hazards and mop up spills immediately to prevent injuries from falls. Store potentially hazardous materials in containers specifically designed for those materials' storage and keep all combustible materials at least 25 feet away from potential ignition sources.
  
  

Personal Protective Equipment

• OSHA requires employers to provide workers with PPE appropriate to their workplace's hazards and train them in its proper use. PPE includes gear such as safety goggles, face shields, hard hats and protective clothing for workers handling caustic chemical agents. (Ref. 2)
  
  

First-Aid

• Employers must keep first aid supplies on their job sites capable of treating the injuries that can occur in that particular work environment and must store them in easily accessible locations. OSHA recommends employers provide first aid training to designated workers on every shift.
